Class IDs and their relevant class names for YOLOv8 model


What are the class IDs and their corresponding class names for YOLOv8 models? I understand there are approximately 80 classes in the object detection model of YOLOv8. However, I'm looking to specifically identify each class along with their respective class IDs. Additionally, do all YOLO models (yolov3, yolov5, yolov7, yolov8) have the same number of classes and corresponding class IDs?


Solution

  • It depends on what dataset was used to pre-train yolo model. It was a COCO dataset with a corresponding class list for Ultralitics yolov8 and yolov5 pre-trained models. Loading different yolo models using Ultralitics library, you can check this information by running this code:

    from ultralytics import YOLO
    
    model = YOLO('yolov8n.pt') # yolov3-v7
    model.names
